Beautiful campground that makes you feel like you are in an alpine meadow, however, huge issue with noise and people not understanding how flashlights work as they are on their way to the bathrooms. No one in my family slept at all second night due to flashlights shining directly into the tents the whole night- please walk with your flashlight facing downwards, not straight ahead of you into peoples' sites. These new LED flashlights are very, very bright.It's becoming more and more difficult to have a camping trip where people show up and setup within reasonable time frames. It was already well past 10 pm and very dark when a family came and loudly spent over an hour setting up their tent, only to deconstruct and leave by 6am the next day. One of the sites' tent pads we set up on was so close to the next site's tent pad that we heard the neighbors snoring, even with our ear plugs in.Visually, I immediately felt this would be a great place to come back to every year as I really enjoyed the scenery. It reminded me of Yosemite. But due the actual conditions of the stay, will not be coming back. People gotta sleep when they have long days of driving and activities ahead. Some of the sites, while gorgeous with their big boulders, are just configured in a way that make these things more of an issue.

Beautiful area..new to me. Sites felt nicely spread out ( stayed in a teardrop camper) and buffered by the forest. I like the concept of hike-in tent sites. Some restrooms were very clean. Some not so much (and quite stinky). Otherwise campsite was clean. Was unable to verify my reservation with camp host once we arrived....a bit hard to them track down and tag on the site I reserved...made me concerned since it appeared to be a quite busy time.

This was a gorgeous, well maintained camp site. Despite being understaffed (we couldn't find the camp host the whole time) - it was still clean and well kept grounds. The bathrooms were surprisingly clean and stocked. The camp site was tucked back in tree for privacy and the tent pad had a nice soft sand/fine gravel to put your tent on. We hadn't realized how cold it would get during this time of year at this elevation, so we were pretty cold at night in our tent and woke up to ice crystals everywhere, but it was a great experience nonetheless. We were one of maybe 3 other groups of people camping at this campground when we went, and we were spread out enough that we barely saw / and didn't even hear anyone else the whole time we were there. At night, we heard packs of coyotes howling at the full moon, and owls hooting. The view of the stars and Milky Way was breathtaking. We felt so immersed in nature and didn't have any noises or distractions from other people. They also had yurts available. Definitely recommend going during off-season!

What a beautiful and peaceful lake. We stayed only one night the first of October, but we'll definitely be back. Basic campground, but very clean and well maintained. Be sure to take the hike up to Hoffer Lakes as well. Less than a mile above Anthony, and worth the hike.
